As we strategize our approach to the next two years leading up to the 2019 federal election, we want your feedback, so that together we can execute a campaign with the best chance of delivering results. With that goal in mind, we hope you will take a few minutes to answer our survey.

Over the past two years, thousands of you have participated in the movement for a fair electoral system by promoting proportional representation online and in your community, canvassing candidates, attending ERRE town halls, committee consultations and dialogues, filling out online surveys, giving your feedback on our submission to the ERRE, attending rallies, and writing, calling and visiting MPs about PR.

The reversal on electoral reform announced by the Liberal government on Feb. 1, 2017 was a great disappointment for our movement and evoked strong feelings of anger and betrayal among Canadians.

It became clear with the government’s shocking about-face on its promise that what the government expected was an emerging consensus in favour of another winner-take-all system: preferential ballots in single member ridings (Alternative Vote).

Instead, Canadians won victory after victory for PR and left them nowhere to go. They had to either listen to the consensus, listen to the evidence, and start the process of changing our electoral system to PR - or abandon it all together.

But the campaign promises, the intensive consultation process, and the decision of the government to use it’s 39% majority to slam the door on PR also raised the profile of federal electoral reform in a significant way.

The genie will not be put back in the bottle.

The government’s actions have left many Canadians more determined than ever to elect representatives in 2019 committed to making every vote count and to achieve proportional representation in Canada.
